00:00 Hi there, I'm Connor Gormley, a trainee reporter for Sussex World and these are some of our

00:04 top stories from across both counties today. Pell's Recreation Ground in Lewis was taped off

00:10 on Saturday. This was early in the morning after police officers were called to reports of a woman

00:15 in distress. A Sussex Police spokesperson said officers are investigating a potential sexual

00:20 assault and the woman is being supported by specialist officers. Meanwhile, in West Sussex,

00:25 an injured northern bottlenose whale died after washing up on shore at Rustington Beach.

00:30 This was despite the best efforts of locals, rescue teams and the British Divers Marine Life Rescue

00:37 Group to return it to the sea. In much lighter news though, the Eastbourne Air Show set off over

00:43 the weekend to rave reviews from guests. It's in its 29th year and it remains one of the standout

00:48 air shows on the south coast. If you check out the Sussex World website, you'll find pictures of the

00:53 Red Arrows display, the Battle of Britain memorial flight, typhoons, spitfires and an awful lot more,

01:00 so that's well worth taking a look at. That's all from me today, but to find out more and keep up

01:05 with all the latest news from your area, do make sure to follow Sussex World on the social media

01:15 updates. Thank you very, very much.
